Coffee is a great way to get your day started. No arguments from us! Turning to Starbucks to get that jumpstart is our cup of tea (or joe?), too. And Team Delish would never judge your coffee order, scouts honor.
But maybe you're on the lookout for a Starbs drink that's a little bit healthier? We don't mind helping with that. We've compiled a list of Starbucks drinks that are lower in calories, fat, and sugar, so you can still get the caffeine you crave without any of the extra stuff you don't want. And don't worry—there's no skimping on flavor here. You'll still have plenty of cinnamon, pumpkin, or vanilla to help you get through the day.
If you're looking to lower the calorie, fat, or sugar content in your go-to Starbucks order, try swapping out whole milk for a non-dairy milk, as many of our suggestions do, or opting for a sugar-free syrup. Additionally, here are nine drinks from Starbucks that are lower in calories, sugar, and fat, and how to order them.

1
Caffè Misto
The Caffè Misto has 110 calories, 10 grams sugar, and 4 grams of fat. There isn't a lot of milk in this drink to begin with, but swapping it out for a non-dairy option could also help reduce the sugar count. Add a pump of syrup for more flavor, but ask for sugar-free if you want to keep the sugar content to a minimum.
2
Iced Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso
Okay, this one is so good. The drink's got all the flavor with espresso, brown sugar, and cinnamon. And with 120 calories, 12 grams of sugar, and 3 grams of fat, it's a solid option. You can lower the sugar content a bit by asking for two pumps of brown sugar syrup instead of the usual four.
3
Caffè Americano
A Caffè Americano has 15 calories and no sugar or fat. For an extra bit of something, throw in some non-dairy milk or one to two pumps of syrup—sugar-free if you'd like.

Flat White
The Flat White is perfect for anyone who loves a creamy drink. You can still get that super rich texture with only 170 calories, 13 grams of sugar, and 9 grams of fat (for a tall). If you want to lowers those numbers more, swap in soy or almond milk.
5
Vanilla Cold Brew
Most of the cold brew flavors are low in calories, sugar, and fat, but we love this one because it just tastes so damn good. Coming in at 110 calories, 14 grams of sugar, and five gram of fat, this drink is a winner. You can cut down on the sugar by asking your barista for less honey flavoring.
6
Iced Blonde Vanilla Latte
Here's another one for the creamy-drink lovers. Clocking in at 190 calories, 28 grams of sugar, and 4 grams of fat, the blonde vanilla latte is as delicious as its name suggests. You can lower the sugar content by subbing in sugar-free vanilla syrup.
